Like a dream

Terrible rental company. It took me 40 minutes to complete the process even though I was the first customer in the morning. The front desk was a Black woman who clearly discriminated against Chinese people; she was very impatient. When she saw I had reserved a BMW 3 Series, she immediately said they didn't have any BMWs available and offered me a Renault instead. This was the first rental of the day, and I had seen a row of 3 Series and 5 Series cars in the parking lot. I asked if I could at least get an A3 or a B-class car, but she refused. When returning the car, another Black woman was extremely strict, the strictest I've ever encountered while renting in Europe. She inspected the car multiple times and even asked where I last refueled, requesting the receipt. Overall, this is a very small-minded company. No idea how the Madrid branch has such high ratings.

Acceptable

In Málaga, Spain, Budget and Avis are located together. After collecting our luggage, we followed the signs directly to the rental area. There were noticeably fewer staff at Budget compared to Goladcar next door. The service staff's English was just enough for communication. We added full insurance, which is very necessary. However, the TOMTOM GPS device was not very good. The guy at the parking lot when returning the car was also very friendly.

They did a great job and will continue to use them if they maintain this level of customer service.

Cheap prices,simple to use.

Waited over an hour at the pick up counter to get my rental that I prepaid online. And then waited another 20 minutes at the pick up location for the vehicle.
